Various Observations On Life

All About Shanno

Hey out there, just thought I’d finally get some info on here about myself, just in case anyone was interested. As you may have guessed from a few of my posts, I work in an office, just like so many others out there in the working world. I managed the files in the computer system so the much higher paid lawyers can see all their documents wherever they go and win their cases. I actually went to school for nursing but then decided I would make a terrible nurse because I would have to interact with the public, work twelve hour shifts and be in hospitals (really, I didn’t think things through when I actually applied for school).

So I left that all behind and made the transition to full time at the office I was already working at and now my life is something very similar to the movie “Office Space”. There’s a wide variety of quirky characters, all kinds of drama and the photocopier is always breaking down.

I live with the Boyfriend (Mike) and our kitty Mr. Pip Squeak (Peep for short) in London, Ontario, Canada and it’s a lovely little life indeed. I hate Twilight (I actually thought the books were alright until the movies came out and they tried to shove every stupid piece of crappy merch down my throat), I don’t understand why people need to be texting ALL the time and I hate new school cartoons (animation without computers will always be the best and most rewarding ones to watch).

I grew up in a small town (~1000 people), there were 500 kids in my high school (bused in from three different towns) and you really did know everyone. It was weird to move to the city 9 years ago and I’m still getting used to it. I love the convenience (there isn’t even a Tim Horton’s back home) but the drivers are horrid and it smells like exhaust and dirt. I could never see myself going back to the small town, but I don’t think I’ll ever fully love the city either.

I love all kinds of music (except rap and Justin Bieber), I can’t stand Paris Hilton, my guilty pleasure TV show is Glee and my fave game series of all time is still Zelda. I’m a nerd at heart and always will be.
